Club to Take Up Fight to Es tablish Court of Domestic' Relations Members of the Civitan club are considering- the idea of taking: up the fight for a court of domestic rela tions as recently proposed by Judge Hugh A.

ABOLISH PRECINCT Historic Beat in Madison Oounty Is Abolished Huntsville, May 12.—(Special.)— Triana precinct No. 6, established as a voting: precinct In Madison county during- the dayH of reconstruction following the Civil war, has been abolished as a voting place by the Madison county board of revenue, acting on petition of the voters who declare that there are not enough qualified voters to hold the elec tions. The number has dwindled to eighteen during the years following the disfranchisement of the negro voters by the Alabama constitution. The announcement of the passing of Triana as a political district is of more than usual interest. In years gone by it had the largest negro vote of any precinct in Madison county with probably a dozen or smaller number of white men to ?old them In line, and yet its vote has swung many an election in favor of the democratic ticket of Madison county. The negro vote was cast solid for the democrats almost in variably and Triana politicians had a powerful pull in county politics. The town of Triana was once a rival of Huntsville for the county seat, being located on the Tennessee river, and It is believed that if it had had an advantageous site for a city, would have got the courthouse and kept Huntsville from ever be coming more than a country village. Something was lacking, however, and the boomers of Triana, who had cut their property Into city lots, turned them back into cotton and corn fields. It is a rich farming district but the white population is widely scattered, living on big plantations that have many negro tenants, and the conditions there come nearer be ing like the typical Mississippi plan tation community than anywhere else known outside of Mississippi it self.

Mother, “Queen o’ the May By DOLLY DALRYMPLE Tomorrow 1 n "Mothers’ Day" and It brings to mind the beautiful lines that Kate Douglas Wlggln wrote when she said: "Most of all, the other beautiful things In life come by twos and threes; by dozens and hundred. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers, sisters, aunts and cousins, but only ONE MOTHER in all the wide world.” Tomorrow will be a good day to recall these lines. As a matter of fact every day should be "Mothers' Day”—not Just one poor little old Sunday in May. Maybe on some other planet, God I made something finer and better and (truer than a mother, but certain w*e are that she is His masterpiece in ; this great, floating old world. Many of us live long, just taking our mothers for granted. We get so used to them that they come to be just as casual as the clock on the mantel. The mother heart ticks away a lit tle tune not unlike the clock. Both say: “I’m here! I’m here! I'm here!” The young man in the story might have put it more elegantly, but not more eloquently, when he said: "Tell my mother I need her. To come to me here. She’s always on the job.” The message came from prison walls. The man had been arrested and the friends who should have shared his crime and disgrace had deserted him, but ho knew he could send for his mother and she would come. The mother heart is always on the Job. Because a man’s in prison she does not pass him up. No indeed. Parodists have tried hard to get funny over the old song, "A Boy's Best Friend is Mis Mother," but there’s too much honest truth in it for anybody to undermine Its appeal. Anybody’s best friend is that per son's mother. There's a good old ringing toast that I dearly love. Maybe you know it: "We have toasted our sweethearts Our friends and our wives; We have toasted each other, Wishing all merry lives; Don’t frown when I tell you This toast beats all others: Drink one more sip, boys. A toast to "Our Mothers.” DOLLTSliAnnY’S Philosophy j IJ-i. i .iii si . Ole Miss, de saddes' thing in all de wide, wide world is de li*l ole Lane whar dar ain’t sum sweet-faced, gentle hearted MOTHER, er waitin' fer her Chile, Yassuni, One good mother Is worth—but why try to express In cold, gray type a comparison for which a bankrupt j world holds not enough preciousness to balance? The founnt of deep, strong and deathless love that wells up In a mother's heart has been the theme of many a poet after life had taught its sad lesson of the lighter loves that pass. A mother's love believeth all things, trusteth all things, endureth all things, and suffereth all neglect, without ever having Its affections diminished. It's the one certain thing in this fleeting old world of vacillating un-' certainties. I read a pretty "dedication” once. In a little hook, something like this: "My mother will read this bonk through two pair of spectacles; one i will magnify virtues, the other di AMUSEMENTS By Estelle Bf«tk«* Mnrlowe 8KXTRTTK OF CHARMERS AT THE LYRIC An exceptionally pretty and tal ented sextotte of girls, are headlin ing in a musical offering at the Lyric today.

SWIMMING AT WEST LAKE FINE WEEK-END SPORT What to do on long:, hot Sundays and Saturday afternoons pff is be ing: solved by large numbers of pleasure seekers who have found the West I^ake beach and Saturday night dance the most delightful and re freshing solution of this problem of the week-ender. Last Sunday was a bit cool, and still the beach at West Lake was crowded with devotees of bathing. This Sunday, with the new rise in the thermometer, a large crowd is expected to patronize the fine bath ing that West Lake offers. Also to night is going to be a fine one for both dancing and bathing, or the combination of both.

Cited For Contempt, Moore Discharged In Heflins Coart George C. Moore, superintendent of city streets, was discharged yesterday when arraigned before Judge H. P. Heflin on a charge of contempt.

The fortunate ones are the children who are not too mole-eyed to see and appreciate what an alchemist a moth er's love is. Each mother crow thinks her own little old crow is the whitest—and heaven knows, most young crows are black enough in all faith. But she doesn't think so. You remember what Mark Twain said about all of us having the good fortune to be born—“babies.” “We," said the clever humorist, “have not all been generals, or poets, or statesmen, but when the toast works down to the babies, we stand on common ground, because we've all been babies.” And having all been babies, if we have the saving grace that bows down before long suffering, devotion and patience and love Justified and undeserved, we will not withhold our | tributes tomorrow—Mothers’ Day—• to the mother who bore us. when we must have been merely a hideous, little, chubby, fat. red atom to all the rest of the world. There’s Just one mother — your mother! Remember that! Tomorrow Is a good time for you to take a “trial balance” and see Just how much you owe her. Because she is your mother no doubt she will erase all the pages on which It might be written down how much she has given you of af fection and tenderness and how very little you have given her in return. Tomorrow will be an excellent day for you to turn over a new leaf on which her name will play ,^n import ant pflift; for It's as true now as the time when the poet wrote the words: | "Thou canet replace friend, husband, wife. But not thy blessed mother.” There’s a very old song, in a very old play, that pays a fitting tribute to the queenhood of mothers, in say ing: “Then crown her queen o’er all the; world, • For she's the realest queen of them ; all.” ELECT OFFICERS Jacksonville Confederate Veterans Choose Leaders For Year Jacksonville, May 12.— (Special)— At a meeting- of Camp Colonel James B.
